The size, however, is regulated according to the population of the immediate neighborhood. The seats are raised in a circle, one above another, about a central ring in which the contest takes place. The ground is covered with sawdust or tan. The birds are of a native game breed, and are subject from chickenhood to a peculiar course of treatment.
"That creature is nothing but a bunch of green feathers and a loud voice." Henrietta Hen had no love for Turkey Proudfoot. Beginning with the days of her chickenhood he had always ordered her about, telling her not to do this and not to do that. Even after she was grown up and had a family of her own, Turkey Proudfoot treated her as if she had just begun to scratch for herself.
"And wherefore not, wise sir? since you would nathless enter chickenhood." But instead of replying in the same gay, bantering tone, Harry sighed deeply, and, still holding her hand, drew her into the field. "It is quite true, Maud," he said. "I was actually wishing to be a chicken, or anything but what I am Harry Drury, of Hayslope Grange."
The accidents and vicissitudes of early chickenhood are serious matters to the unmothered chick, and they must not be overlooked by the breeder who figures his profits on paper. After the first year I kept no tabs on the chickens hatched; my desire was to add each year 600 pullets to my flock, and after the third season to dispose of as many hens.
